Grace period for Schengen visa

I have a valid Schengen visa for 90 stay of duration valid form 21/09/2018 to 19/03//19. Is there any grace period associated to Schengen visa? This is because my flight back home is on the 94th day of my stay.

Just saying this is my 5th Schengen visa, and have been a holder of the residence permit previously of France, but haven't had such issues before thus I am looking for advice.

Best Answer

No. A kind of "grace period" is given when the validity period exceeds the duration of stay, so that the visitor can adjust the travel dates without a new visa, but exceeding the duration of stay beyond the 90/180 rule requires a national D visa or other special cases. (Some nations have bilateral treaties preceding the Schengen rules, which were "grandfathered" in.)

What happens if my Schengen Visa expires?

Authorities will also punish you whether your overstay beyond your Schengen Visa's validity was intentional or unintentional. You could receive a fine, immediate deportation or even get banned from entering the Schengen Area for a period.

What happens if you overstay Schengen 90 days?

The Schengen law states that you can't stay in the Area for more than 90 days. If you do, you're subject to a fine and possibly deportation and being banned from re-entering the Schengen Area. How that rule is enforced, though, varies greatly from one country to another.

What is the Schengen 90 day rule?

Under the terms of Schengen, non-EEA nationals cannot spend more than a total of 90 days within a total period of 180 days without a visa. Furthermore, once you've used up your quota of 90 days, you cannot return to Schengen until 90 more days have passed.

Can you stay in Europe for more than 3 months after Brexit?

Now that the UK is outside the EU, British passport holders can stay for a maximum of 90 days per 180-day period. UK passport holders can cross an external EU border using just a valid passport and stay anywhere in the Schengen Area for up to 3 months.
